We back with another language video this week. A question I'm sometimes asked by friends is how I learned some of the languages I know. And in this video I wanted to detail how I learned Japanese by myself without really studying. This was virtually free, self paced and location independent too, I am happy to share. IF you read the description you are a real one and I appreciate the love and support! Don't be shy, say hello down below!

Here are some chapters in the video:
